Salmonella
Got diarrhea? Well, if you contract salmonella, you’ll have
plenty of it. Salmonella sickens more than 1 million people each year and
results in more hospitalizations and deaths than any other foodborne illness.

Filthy Conditions
A recent Mercy For Animals undercover investigation at a Tyson

like ExxonMobil and Dow Chemical. Go green, go vegan!

It’s Full of Sh*t
Chicken meat is literally full of sh*t. In 2011, the USDA
reported that 90 percent of defects discovered in chicken carcasses at
slaughter plants involved “visible fecal contamination that was missed by
company employees.”

Exploited Workers
From being forced to wear diapers because they’re denied
bathroom breaks to losing
limbs, workers on chicken farms are treated appallingly. In fact, farm
worker advocate Cesar Chavez was vegetarian because he knew the animal
